A chemist adds a tiny amount of arsenic to a crystal of pure silicon. Arsenic is in group 15, so each of its atoms has five outer electrons. Four of them join the bonds of the neighbouring silicon atoms. What does the crystal become?
A p-type semiconductor, with holes as the majority carriers
An insulator, because every bond is now full
An n-type semiconductor, with electrons as the majority carriers
A negatively charged crystal
